Hi all. My girl friend has a old 1978 c210 :) . she has had it for many years and had to put a new motor in it, it now has a l28 motor in it, from the numbers in the block and head it seems that the motor come from a 1983 280zx turbo. (thats just from the info i found on the net) I have all the efi stuff like inlet manifold, ecu, ect. i have been doing some thinking and want to hook the efi up and maybe put a turbo on it. any one here know any thing about hooking up the efi and where i could look to find turbo manifold?

Thanks.

Hi, I have a good mate with a turbo'ed L20 C210, and it goes like the clappers. There was a turbo manifold on ebay this week, and they come up on the US ebay regularly as well. You will probably get the best turbo L28 advice from Ghostrider, he is in the middle of building one now.

Good luck with it, and let us know how it works out.

Any one got a wire diagram for the r30 efi?

Might help me to wire up the efi into the c210.

there was a geocities site that had the full wiring diagram for the hr30... Im unsure if its still there anymore :(

Ill see what i can find. Ive finished building my l28et and about to drop it in this weekend. If you need any insite. you know what ya need to do :dry:

Hi, Thanks, I found that site last night and was having a bit of a read,

Im not sure i really under stand what they said to do, (R = Red = pin 5 from fuseable link to the dropping resistor power to injectors.

Y/L= Yellow blue power from pin 13 on the computer to pull relay in on fuel pump relay then black to earth.

L = Blue = pin 4 from a fuseable link to through the efi relay to pin 27 on the computer when the relay is activated by ignition on.

B/Y = Black Yellow = pin 2 from ignition switch start through to cold start valve and thermite switch then to computer pin 26.

B/W = Black White = pin 1 ignition switch run to ic ignition unit and coil.)

I will have a look today and see what i can work out.

this may help

and this

and these pictures should help

The second picture shows how I wired my late model MR30 EFI, it has a rectangle plug, where as the diagram shows the earlier MR30 EFI (using a square plug)

So i need to get the fues box from the r30 with the fuel pump relay and efi relay and fues block?

Yes it would help

It could be done without it, but I used it to make it easier, and since I had a MR30 as a donor, I could use all the bits I needed.

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
